THIS IS MY STORY

These were our pets

We always had a dog and a cat or two. Dogs I remember (and have photos of) are Rags, Jimmy and Butch. Butch was with us the longest.

He had been a Christmas present for Roger. He was a carefree dog who was allowed in the house but limited to the kitchen. He followed us around the Heights when we were playing. He did not like loud noises however. When it thundered, he hid. When hunting season started, he panicked. 4th of July was torture for him, but otherwise he was friendly and a companion. Later as we grew up, he moved down to cousin Calvin’s place where he remained for the rest of his life.
